OVERVIEW

• Small, lightweight, adaptable, surveillance system for land forces

• Self-organizing, ad-hoc, secure wireless network communications

• 2.45 GHz 802.15.4 Mesh-enabled network

• On-board and external sensors

– Radio Fence/ GPS/ Cameras/ Others

• Anti-tamper

– Four PIRs/ Accelerometer/ Magnetometer

• Standard interfaces and open data sharing standards for interoperability

• Rugged, power efficient, affordable

• Connected to a low bandwidth camera for TOI identification

• Alerts and images are relayed from the tripped node through the mesh network to a coordinator node and displayed on the monitoring software

• Tower-mounted optics can be slewed to focus on target area

• Useful for riverine and trail surveillance, high-density foliage environments

Operates at ranges between 50m to 100m clear-line-of-sight (CLOS)

Radio Fence Feature

• The Radio Fence technology creates a “trip-wire” between nodes by continuously monitoring changes in the radio link signals

• The fence is triggered when a significant change in the radio link signal is detected indicating that something has passed between two nodes

• The detection between nodes is then reported to the user/collection point

• Allows long distance detection for perimeter security
